I can't believe it's been 8 years since we graduated high school. Boy, how time flies! I went to the Spanish Fork High School Class of 2008 graduation to see my brother-in-law graduate, and so many memories came to my head. Ashley, do you remember our homecoming adventure? (I don't want to say too much to make me look like a fool :) ) I thought of all those silly things we used to do. I thought about dating in school, and how hard I thought it was. I am soooooo lucky I married my highschool sweetheart! We've been dating for almost 10 years. There were some good times in highschool, don't 'ya think? Congrats class of 2008!

The C family
This is the family.......I think it's the only picture we have of Jeff's Dad and brothers. Plus, it's the only picture we could get with the brothers actually smiling rather than having their "hard A" faces on. People are so much better looking with smiles on their faces don't ya think? I do! If you can't tell, it's Christmas time. What a bunch of handsome Curtis'(especially the one in the dark sweater :) He's the handsom-est one of all!!!!!

Guatemalan film Dust (Polvo) has led the winners at the 25th 'Rencontres' festival of Latin American cinema in Toulouse.
Directed by Julio Hernández Cordón, Dust won the Coup de Coueur at the festival, which ran from March 15-24. The Guatemala-Chili-Spain co-production was also awarded $8,400 for distribution.
Dust is the story of a documentary film being made about victims who disappeared during the 1982 military conflict in Guatemala.
The jury also made mention of Mexican feature Las lagrimas, directed by Pablo Delgado Sánchez, about two brothers who get lost in the forest.
The jury included Marco Bechis (director), Nicolas Cazalé (actor), Fiorella Moretti (producer), Nahuel Pérez (actor) and Alejo Franzetti (director).
Films in Progress, a competition aimed to help unfinished South American projects along with San Sebastián film festival, was won by Chili-France co-production El verano de los peces voladores.
The film, directed by Marcela Said, tells the story of a group of white landowners in southern Chili who face conflicts with the Mapuche indians.
It picked up the Prix Espécial Cine + En Contsruction and the Prix Cinema en Construction. The prize will help with the post production and promotion of the film.
The previous Films in Progress winner, held in San Sebastián last September, was Berlinale award-winner Gloria.
More than 50 producers and distributors from across Europe were offered screenings of six projects.
The prize from European distributors was handled to Climas, a Peruvian-Colombian co production directed by Enrica Pérez.
Public prize La Depeche Du Midi was awarded to Chilian feature Joven y alocada, by Marialy Rivas, about a rebel female youngster with a religious family.
Venezuelan film la Piscina, by Carlos Machado, won the CCAS prix granted by French electricians, and the Discovery prize of the French critics.
In an edition notable for the success of Chilean productions, La chupilca del diablo won the Fipresci prize.

I'd like to see a better finished fit on the individual key cutouts on the cover as there're raised gap (air pocket) when it's laid onto the keyboard making it a little more mushy when typing. Also, condensation appears underneath it so taking them off once a week to air dry for a minute or two helps.
Overall good product. Recommended.
Pros: Matches the keys and general layout of the keyboard. Clear marking and the silicone feels good and makes typing quiet.
Cons: Imperfect fit. Overlaps instead of lining up with lip between keyboard and speaker grills. Non-see through. Because of the imperfect fit air and liquid could get underneath the "ridges" created by the excess on the edge. Keyboard cover touches screen when laptop is closed.
I bought this to feel safer about my keyboard and protect my computer. I neither feel more protected nor enjoy using this product. I will be attempting to return it and look for one that fits the keyboard better. Not bad for the first one on the market though.

Café Saarein is one of the few original 'bruine kroegen' left in Amsterdam with an early twentieth century interior. In 1978 a group of ten women formed a collective and took over the café from Saar and Rein. This set the base for Amsterdam's infamous women's café Saarein.
In 1999 Dia took over the café, although the interior has changed, just like the guests. Saarein is now open for all 'queer minded people'.
Music, playing pool and flirting are the main ingredients of this small and cosy café which is situated in the old picturesque part of town, close to all central amenities.

AMC's The Walking Dead is an incredibly popular show. Last night's midseason premiere (read Dave's recap here) scored a staggering 12.3 million viewers, which is the series' largest audience to date. The episode also proved strong in the coveted 18-49 demo, garnering 7.7 million viewers with the key demographic. In fact, the series average for the 18-49 demo is higher than those of network hits like Modern Family, NCIS, and even The Big Bang Theory. The show's previous ratings record was the season three premiere which scored 10.9 million viewers, but the numbers just continue to climb. When taking into account the encore broadcasts of the episode, a total of 16.6 million people watched The Walking Dead last night.
The ratings feat of last night's episode is even more impressive when you take into account the fact that the show was airing opposite the 2013 Grammy Awards, which are an annual ratings draw. Despite AMC's apparent revolving door approach to TWD showrunners, it's safe to assume that the show will be on the air for a very, very long time should these kinds of numbers continue.

Is This the HP Board That Will Allow Us to Stop Thinking About HP's Board?
On any other day, so significant a shake-up on the board of directors of a Silicon Valley company as eminent as Hewlett-Packard would easily have been the lead story. That it took a management shift at the top of Google to overshadow it seems somehow appropriate.
The various boardroom dramas that have roiled HP's directors during the last decade have often overshadowed HP itself. Last August's blowup involving the departure of CEO Mark Hurd following accusations of sexual harassment occurred against the backdrop of lingering memories of the 2006 scandal involving the use of illegal methods to spy on journalists that ended the tenures of three HP directors.
Before that there was a public fight against HP's 2002 acquisition of Compaq, led by dissident director Walter Hewlett, who eventually lost his seat. The Compaq deal ultimately cost Carly Fiorina her job at HP after a boardroom confrontation in 2005.
The result of all this is that boardroom drama has become something of an HP specialty, along with printers, computers and IT services. Criticizing the board's actions has become something of a sport, with Oracle CEO Larry Ellison serving as the most public practitioner.
Shareholders appeared to agree that a change was overdue. HP shares shot up right away as word of a shake-up began to leak right before markets closed yesterday. HP shares closed up one percent today, trading at levels not seen since before Hurd's abrupt departure in August.
The four departing directors were deeply involved in the Hurd kerfuffle. Two were Hurd defenders, and the other two wanted him out. All four volunteered. Chairman Ray Lane, in an interview with The Wall Street Journal, said the debate over Hurd's status "took a lot out of this board."
It's highly unusual for a company to change its board so deeply and so suddenly. The five new additions became directors effective today without any input from shareholders, and will serve until a vote can be held to approve them for a full one-year term at the next shareholder meeting in March.
Shareholders in theory have the power to offer their own slate of directors, but there's little time for that, and even if some group were to do so, its only option would be to do so at its own expense. SEC rules governing the access to the proxy nominating process are currently being challenged in court by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and Business Roundtable, and so the rules that would allow shareholders to more easily submit their own list of names are on hold pending the outcome.
Absent a proxy challenge, HP shareholders will be put in the position of accepting a board on which seven of 13 directors are brand-new. That's a lot of new blood and may turn out to be the kind of change HP's board needs. And getting the change done all at once rather than gradually may prove the better option.
However, I can't help but wonder: In seeking to close out a period in which HP's board became known more for its drama than anything else, is more drama the right answer?

Body of Seinfeld actor Charles Levin eaten by vultures
WARNING: Story contains graphic details
The body of an actor who once appeared on Seinfeld was found badly decomposed and eaten by vultures in Oregon.
According to the Daily Mail, the body of Charles Levin was found 30 feet down a steep slope in Cave Junction, Ore. The actor – who played the part of a nervous mohel in an episode of Seinfeld – was reported missing July 8 by his son, Jesse, after not hearing from him since June 28.
The man's body was found July 13 off a remote road on a mountain that's deemed dangerous to drive on by locals. According to police reports, Levin was deceased days before he was found.
He was believed to have fallen down a ravine when he attempted to call for help.
In the report, authorities noted Levin's body was found naked and wedged between trees. His internal organs were missing.
It noted there "were signs of animal scavenging likely in the form of turkey vultures as there was evidence of bird feces on and around the body," the Daily Mail reported.
Levin's body was identified using dental records. His dog's death was ruled accidental.
The 70-year-old actor's car was found at the top of the ravine. The corpse of his pug was found inside.
Originally from Chicago, Levin was best known for playing the role of Elliot Novak on the sitcom Alice from 1976 to 1985, Page Six reported.
Other notable television and film credits include Night Court, Doogie Howser M.D., Annie Hall and This Is Spinal Tap.

The current website design does not reflect the importance of the stnadard. You have to go looking for it, and once you're on the 'learn' page you have to scroll down to notice it.
IMO there should be a "standards" page featured in the top bar right next to "learn" and "software".

MO Bill Seeks to Ban Gender-Based Abortions
JEFFERSON CITY - Legislation proposed in the Missouri House would outlaw abortions performed solely because of the sex or potential genetic abnormality of the fetus.
The bill is sponsored by Republican Representative John McCaherty, of suburban St. Louis. It would allow criminal charges and civil lawsuits against doctors for performing abortions on women who they know are seeking to end a pregnancy solely based on gender or potential physical or mental disabilities.
Americans United for Life says the Missouri bill is modeled after a proposal it's also pursuing in other states. The anti-abortion group says "sex-selection abortions" have become increasingly common in some Asian countries.
McCaherty's bill was filed this week with more than 40 co-sponsors - about one-fourth of all House members. McCaherty is the pastor of First Baptist Church of Murphy.

Nature Made is the #1 Pharmacist Recommended brand of Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10),* and 4 Nature Made CoQ10 products are USP verified for quality and purity.‡
CoQ10 is naturally orange and found in most cells in the body. CoQ10 helps support cellular energy production in the mitochondria – the powerhouses of most cells. The highest concentrations of cellular mitochondria are found in the hardest working cells in the body, such as the heart, making CoQ10 an important nutrient to help support heart function.† Moderate amounts of CoQ10 are found in foods, but the primary source of CoQ10 in the body is produced by the body itself. CoQ10 levels decrease with age and some cholesterol-lowering statin drugs can reduce CoQ10 production, which is why supplementing may be helpful to replenish CoQ10 levels in the body.†

"Life on Mars": yes, it makes more sense than the Bowie song
For those who haven't seen it, "Life on Mars" is a British TV series starring John Simm as a modern-day Manchester police detective named Sam Tyler who is on the trail of a murderer when he's suddenly struck down by a car. When he wakes up, he finds himself in Manchester...in the year 1973. So, he's either gone crazy, is in a coma or perhaps, is dead. (And dear God, he keeps seeing a creepy little girl with a clown.) As he tries to figure out what the hell has happened to him, he keeps up his police work with the 1973-era Manchester police and has to deal with an entirely different world of detecting, where planting evidence and beating the crap out of a suspect won't necessarily put a guy on the naughty list.
"Life on Mars" is part trippy mind-bending mystery, ala "Lost," and part pure cop story with a weekly case to be solved. It's also a love story and a comedy and an examination of cultural clashes.
If it sounds like a goofy premise, well, it is but the beauty of the show is that it only ran 16 episodes so the series never outgrew the constraints of that goofy premise. Instead, each episode feels like a deliberate, well-crafted piece of a really cool puzzle, building to what I have to say is one of the best endings of a TV series ever.
The acting in this show is first-rate, with John Simm absolutely stellar as the very confused yet still incredibly bull-headed Tyler. As someone who had only ever seen Simm as the Master on "Doctor Who" (and, I'm sorry to say, couldn't stand him in the part), I was shocked at how terrific he is in this role. He does a beautiful job of making you wonder whether Tyler truly is crazy or just a poor man stuck in the middle of a truly bizarre metaphysical accident.
Philip Glenister as Gene Hunt, Tyler's supervisor in 1973, is an absolute scene stealer and a perfect foil to Simm's soulful earnestness. Hunt is a complete bastard but totally dynamic and appealing...and fricking hilarious. The rest of the cast is stellar as well, with special mention going to Liz White as Tyler's love interest, Annie, who's trying to make it as a female officer in a very, very sexist era. Imagine a character equal parts bad-ass and adorable -- that's Annie.
If you haven't seen "Life on Mars," you should. I believe in the quality of this series so much, I've actually made a pact with my husband just to get him to watch it. He refuses to believe that a TV show with such a ridiculous premise can be any good, but he's agreed to watch it if I read at least two volumes of Stephen King's "Dark Tower" series -- which I just completed last week -- and if I complete a full "Buffy" rewatch with him. (We're halfway through Season 6.) I've jumped through a lot of hoops so far to get him to watch this show...and he's going to be damn glad I did when he realizes that yes, his wife knows awesomeness the way Barnum knows clowns.
Now if only someone would release "Ashes to Ashes," the "Life on Mars" sequel, on DVD. C'mon, people, mama needs her stories!

One: So the hubby thinks "Life on Mars" has a silly sounding premise, yet he negotiates you into doing a "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" rewatch? That makes me giggle. Lord knows I loves me some Buffster (probably my favorite series of all time), but nothing sounds more silly or ridiculous on the surface.
Two: Y'all sound awesome.
- Unknown said...
I love Life on Mars! It's brilliant and odd and oh my John Simm and Philip Glenister are awesome together!
The spin-off Ashes to Ashes(I smell a theme there) is pretty good too. Lots more Gene Genie though sad lack of Simm.
- Red said...
7 seasons of Buffy = 1 season of Life on Mars?
On the one hand, watching 7 seasons of Buffy would be fun.
But on the other hand, why do you have to do 10 times more (including the King books) than him for him to watch 1 season of something you love?
It's like the chick flick rule, which is unfair too.
Anyway, if you haven't seen Buffy, enjoy!
One of the reasons I love Life on Mars is I was living in Manchester in 1973...I was about 3 at the time. The 'retro' attention to detail is amazing. And I keep seeing locations I recognise - some bits of Manchester haven't changed since the 1970s!
The creepy girl with the clown, by the way, was the actual test-card image on TV in those days. We didn't have 24-hour TV then. And we only had 3 channels, in the UK. One of the channels put up that test card image when they stopped broadcasting. The girl who plays the 'test card girl' in the series looks a lot like the original one in in 70s.
- Michele said...
sayssara - it was the BBC that used the Test Card Girl...
I've not seen "Life on Mars" - I didn't think much of Simm as the Master either (give me Delgado or even Sir Derek *any* day!!) so I've not bothered watching him in anything else.
- MK said...
I got the region 2 version of "Ashes to Ashes" back when my region-free DVD player was still working... but even after it broke I found I could watch the show on my computer using a freeware player called "VideoLan." Enjoy!
- DameRuth said...
Totally agree with you about the epic win that is the British "Life On Mars." I fell in love with it so hard a couple years ago, before it was out in region 1 DVD, I bought both seasons on region 2 from Amazon.co.uk and a region-free DVD player so I could watch them. I've never regretted that, and in fact I have the first 2 seasons of "Ashes To Ashes" on their way to me now from the UK (thank you, tax return money). DVD sets in general (and particularly for home-grown shows) are waaaaaay cheaper over at Amazon.co.uk than they are in the US, and the savings make having a special player worthwhile (not to mention being able to see uncut episodes of awesome shows not yet available on DVD in the US, like A2A and "Being Human"). At least IMNSHO. Your hubby'd better thank you for working so hard to get him to watch something so good; I've never shown this series to anyone who hasn't at least enjoyed it. :)
- Quilt Monkey said...
I loved the British version of Life on Mars as well! I thought it had been cancelled after the first season, but to my great excitement, the second and final season aired. Quite a long time transpired in between! The ending was brilliant and very satisfying. I did also sit through the American version which was less than stellar. And had a VERY different ending. In my opinion, Ashes to Ashes was not great, but good enough to keep watching.
- Camera Obscura said...
Oh, heavens, y'all, if the only thing you've seen Simm in is "Doctor Who" then you haven't seen Simm at all.
"Life on Mars" is first and foremost, of course, given this blog's readership. THEN you need to go watch the REAL "State of Play" -- the U.K. miniseries, not that miserable U.S. movie remake. Note: bonus Bill Nighy, David Morrisey, James McAvoy, and for those of you who fall in love with him in LoM, Phil Glenister.
If you're into historicals, get ahold of "The Devil's Whore." If you're into kids' novels, get "Skellig." If you're into the origins of Punk music, get "24-Hour Party People." If you're into the heavy stuff, get "Crime and Punishment."
Simm's been doing major-league acting for 20 years now. He just took the Master role so he'd have something his kids could watch.
Life on Mars was the series to make me break down and get a region free player and buy the series. Now I force all my friends to watch Ep 1-2 and have gotten a lot of people to see it. :)
Such an amazing piece of television. John Simm was terrific, indeed!
- Unknown said...
Oh yes, definitely watch Ashes to Ashes (Sidereel has online viewing links, or you can get the Region 2 DVDs and strip the restriction super easily). It took me a while to love Keeley Dawes after being in thrall with John Simm, but once I was hooked, that was it.
Thanks CameraObscura for the recs! I will definitely check some of those puppies out.
- MK said...
Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes are awesome! I loved Gene and Sam's relationship but Gene and Alex take it one step further.
About dang time you watched it! Such a good series. I agree that Ashes to Ashes isn't as strong, but it's still a lot of fun. Season three is actually starting on March second, and I'm pretty excited. (Not that I will be able to see it here in America. *cough*, yarr...)
- Jen said...
yep, LOVE LOVE LOVE this show - am planning on purchasing ashes to ashes sometime soon - it's just been released here in Aus.
- Frisco Squid said...
Hmmm... a time-traveler stuck in Manchester... I like the premise. I don't know if I could watch it, though.
- Aging Hipster said...
I've not seen the UK Life on Mars yet - at $60 for Season 1 it is too rich for my blood. Damned economic downturn.
I was rooting for the American version but that WAS the worst series finale I have ever seen. It made the BSG finale seem transcendent in comparison.
Nice to see you back.
I am sorry but I need to come to my own defense here since she doesn't seem to be doing it.
1. Buffy is HER show. She LOVES it and MADE me watch it. This is our 4th time ATTEMPTING to go through the whole thing. We usually get stumped halfway through season 6. I was not about to stop watching it to watch this show. I will gladly watch LoM's when we are done.
2. She just watched LoM's herself and then started watching them all over again. I want to give her some time before watching it a 3rd time through in less than a month.
3. She falls in love with stuff all the time and tries to get me into it. Dr. Who is a prime example. She first tells me that she won't make me watch it because I won't like it. Then she decided she loves it and even though she says I won't like it she begs me to watch it. What? I did like it by the way. She often reads or gets into things and the issue becomes, "I want to discuss it with you so you have to read/watch." Fine. But when I read or watch something (Dark Tower, The Road, Dexter) she doesn't always want to reciprocate or keeps putting it off much longer. I think I have asked to read the Road 10 times in the last 14 months.
5. I really don't want to watch this show and I thought that making her read 2 books would get me out of it. I guess not as she is almost done with book 3. I tried watching this show once before and did not like it. I don't know how that will change.
She only had to read essentially a 700 page book (which if you know my wife, takes 4 hours)to get me to watch 16 hours of a show I already know I don't like.
Actually I really liked the American Version of this show as well. The complete story arc was excellent but then of course ABC cancelled it. Which is why I can NEVER trust ABC. I want to like Flashfoward but I can't get attached becuase they already cancelled Life on Mars and Pushing Daisies both of which I loved. Stupid ABC! You are making me have commitment and trust issues I don't need from a television network!
ROTFL. You guys are so cute. In a world of gold-diggers, trophy wives, and arm candy, this is a match made in heaven.
- Christina M. said...
He must watch Life On Mars! I loved it. Not as much as Ashes to Ashes, but Life On Mars definitely cemented my love of Simm and Glenister.
- Teh Feral Hamster said...
Both shows are good but LOM is by far the best.And the UK version is the original thanykyouverymuch. The over-simplified synopsis of a time traveller isn't great though,cause this ain't Quantum Leap at all at all.If you remember either decade you'll love them,even if you don't it's still great!!
the last episode of Ashes to Ashes is on in the UK and Ireland tonight at 9pm gmt.Get the tissues out...
Sorry, stumbled in here by accident. I have to say though that if you loved LOM then don't bother with Ashes to Ashes. It just isn't as good, the cast are all good actors (check out Keeley Hawes in the Bafta winning Spooks) but somehow the writing is just trying too hard. That said my wife loves Ashes to Ashes for the music as much as I loved LOM for the cars.
As for John Simm in Doctor Who, well I can't think who would have done the role any better but he is capable of far more. Check out "the lakes" for one or his appearence in "Cracker" opposite Robbie Coltrane" (not the watered-down rot you get over in the US). I'm told he's not too shabby in Shakespeare either, his run as "Hamlet" broke box office records here in Sheffield.

Product review: KIKEN custom build laptop shoulder bag from SLAPPA
Enter to win your own KIKEN, or other great prizes!
I am a backpack guy. Whether I'm going away for a week or heading out for a quick overnighter, you can bet I've got my backpack slung across my back for the trip. However, that doesn't mean I don't appreciate a good laptop shoulder bag, especially for those daily commutes or day-long work meetings where a hulking backpack would just be overkill. Seeing as how my favorite backpack at the moment – and, incidentally, the best one I've ever owned – is SLAPPA's custom build M.A.S.K. backpack, I didn't hesitate when offered the opportunity to take the KIKEN shoulder bag (billed as the M.A.S.K. cousin) for a test drive.
Now, we've admittedly been big SLAPPA fans here at Bullz-Eye for several years, largely because they've always delivered high-quality bags that have clearly been thoroughly researched long before seeing the light of day. The KIKEN is no different on that front. SLAPPA spent nearly 20 months developing this shoulder bag, surveying customers and trade show attendees in an effort to, as they say, "develop the best laptop shoulder bag on the market." Did they succeed? Well, we won't pretend to have that answer since we haven't sampled the KIKEN's closest competitors, but after spending one weekend with the bag, we can say those 20 months of development were very well spent.
I recently left the wife and kids for a weekend and headed up to Traverse City, MI, for my annual trip with some college friends. Typically, this weekend is built for my M.A.S.K. backpack, but I couldn't pass up the perfect opportunity to really put the KIKEN through the paces. I loaded it up with everything I'd normally throw into my backpack – laptop, iPod, all the necessary cords and chargers, GPS and mount, some snacks, an extra pair of shoes, some cold weather gear, and a few other odds and ends. With its huge center storage compartment and series of handy pockets, along with the TSA-friendly quick-scan 18" laptop section in the back, the KIKEN took everything I could throw at it. Plus, packing everything up was a breeze since you can open both main compartments wide like a book to get to everything you need. And like most other SLAPPA bags, it's made with puncture-proof and water-resistant 1680D Ballistix nylon, and every zipper puller, clasp and "D" ring is molded alloy. We've come to expect nothing but top quality from SLAPPA gear, and they always deliver.
That's not to say I dig everything about the KIKEN – I'd prefer clasps on the bag flap instead of a long Velcro strip, and I'd love to have a mesh pocket on one of the corners for a water bottle – but those two quibbles are more than offset by the ability to customize the look of the bag with one of the four interchangeable flaps, which allows you to change the look and functionality of the bag at any time. For my trip, I swapped out the Black Blast flap for the Jedi Mind Trix option, which comes with two large Velcro straps that I used tie down my jacket. Handy, indeed. Granted, you have to buy each of the flaps separately, but it's a cool option to have nonetheless, particularly for a cavernous bag like this that still doesn't feel too bulky when it's strapped onto your shoulder. We can't definitively say the KIKEN is the best laptop shoulder bag on the market, but we'd be surprised if it had much competition for that title.

Searchers find body of man in Greens Bayou
Searchers found the body of a man last seen Tuesday afternoon going into the water at a section of Greens Bayou in east Houston, officials said.
The man, believed to be in his mid-to-late 20s, disappeared about 2 p.m. at the bayou along the 700 block of Westmont.
A man who said he was the missing man's uncle said his nephew was with friends when he suddenly began walking fully clothed into the bayou.
The man's friends called authorities when he went under water. A Houston police team was sent to the scene.
The search for the man lasted until his body was found several hours later. The investigation is continuing.

Utrecht-born Jan de Heem specialized in virtuosic flower and banquet pieces that were enthusiastically collected by aristocrats and wealthy merchants alike. This exquisite still life presents a harmonious marriage of color and line and attests to the artist's ability to describe with great precision a range of forms, textures and colors. All the elements are ordered along several axes that meet at the center of the composition, while myriad details throughout, including flowers rendered with the accuracy of a botanist, encourage prolonged examination. However, the sense of movement created by these dynamic lines guides the eye through the still life, so that it does not rest on any one particular detail for too long.
The vanitas theme that was so popular in early examples of the genre waned by the second half of the 17th century, as an interest in the decorative supplanted the emphasis on moralizing iconography. Though de Heem included certain symbols associated with the theme (drooping flowers, a shaft of wheat and short-lived insects), his focus lay in the bravura painting of beautiful motifs in arrangements that signify abundance.

Chief of Sony's North American PlayStation business to step down
SAN FRANCISCO – Sony Corp said on Thursday that the chief executive and president of its North American videogame operations, Jack Tretton, who has played a crucial role in increasing its PlayStation business, will step down at the end of March.
The company gave no specific reason for the move but said the decision was mutual.
Sony said in a statement that Tretton, who has led its North American videogames division, Sony Computer Entertainment America, since 2006, resigned following a mutual agreement between them to "not renew their contractual relationship."
"As one of the founding members of the executive team, Tretton played a pivotal role in launching all PlayStation platforms in North America," Sony said in its statement.
The division's executive vice president and chief operating officer, Shawn Layden, will succeed Tretton starting on April 1, Sony said.
Tretton has worked with Sony Computer Entertainment America since its inception in 1995. Known for his appearances at Sony's glitzy launch events and game industry conferences, he was perceived as the face of Sony's PlayStation business in America.
Under his leadership, Sony's latest videogame console that launched in November, the PlayStation 4, was the top-selling console in the United States in January, according to market research form NPD. Sony said on Tuesday that it has sold more than 6 million PlayStation 4 units worldwide as of March 2.

Utah authorities have launched a child-exploitation probe connected to a former Cortez teacher.
The Desert News in Salt Lake City reported this week that Edward A. Greene, 54, of Spanish Fork, Utah, was booked into the Utah County Jail last week for investigation of 10 counts of exploitation of a minor. Greene has been a fifth-grade teacher at Westfield Elementary in Alpine, Utah, for six years. Prior to that, he taught in Cortez.
According to his personal LinkedIn social media site, Greene taught in the Montezuma-Cortez school district for nearly 18 years, starting in 1989. Listed under his background experience on the site, Greene taught third-, fourth-, fifth- and sixth-graders here, and worked in the Cortez Middle School for 11 years.
The Alpine District has placed Greene on leave, but school officials in Utah said there was no evidence to suggest any of his students were victimized.
As of Tuesday, no criminal charges had been filed.

So far in Volume Two I've crossed three of these blocks: the first was the long introductory sequence devoted to an analysis of Géricault's painting The Raft of the Medusa (1818-1819), in which the narrator seems to be draw an analogy between the situation of the people on the raft and the oppressed working class of 19th century Europe, but then begins to analyse the scene in terms of a personal shipwreck, a disillusionment and abandonment of hope. This shift is discussed by W.G. Sebald in his essay on Weiss as a "transfer" - I would even go so far as to use the psychoanalytical term "transference", as it does not seem out of place here. The reflections and musings on Géricault's aesthetic intentions melt almost imperceptibly into a second block of narration centered on the narrator's political exile with Max Hodann in Paris. There are Walter Benjamin-like street scenes of the city during the years immediately before the outbreak of the Second World War, and then gradually we enter a third block, which gives a vivid account of the narrator's mother's political exile in Sweden and her efforts to evade the clutches of the German secret police.
The writing is at times inspired, with a particularly memorable description of Stockholm during a blizzard:
Durch die schwebenden Flocken gingen sie die enge Straße entlang. Ab und zu erschallten Rufe von den Dächern, ein Posten hielt die Fußgänger auf, heruntergeschaufelter Schnee fiel in die Haufen am Gassenrand. Zwischen Schneewällen gingen sie hindurch, auf den Hafenkai zu, im milchigen Gestöber waren Kräne und die Rümpfe einiger großer Schiffe zu erkennen. Weit wird die Aussicht nicht reichen, sagte die Schwester, sie fuhren aber trotzdem im Fahrstuhl hinauf, das Verkehrsrondell an der Schleuse sank zurück, die Querbalken des Eisenturms glitten vorbei, zuerst waren unten noch Straßenbahnen, Automobile, Omnibusse, auf hohem Sockel ein Reiter mit vorgestreckter Hand zu sehn, dan verschoben such im Flimmern nur noch formlose Schatten. (p. 550)Yet one has the sense that the narrative is constantly being eaten away by Weiss's need to engage in didactic pedagogy, with homilies drawn from contemporary Communist Party texts (mostly Swedish, one gathers) which follow the Soviet line of the time, casting Nazism as a result and product of Western capitalist greed and intrigue, and the Soviet Union as the only hope for the future not only of the working class but of the whole of mankind.
Somehow these political sections, with often stretch for pages, have a curiously desperate ring, and suggest that Weiss himself is not convinced by their content and message. This tension, which was already noticeable in the first volume of the novel, is becoming harder and harder to ignore as I continue to read.

MTV channels its inner Page 3 today, looking at the worst music offerings from professional athletes. (We're going to assume "ESPN Hollywood" has done this story about six times.)
They hit all the highlights, from Shaq's "Shaq Fu: The Return" — with, sadly, no mention of the Fu-Schnickens — Bronson Arroyo's new album of cover songs (it's good to know people are still into "Plush") and Oscar de la Hoya singing a bunch of stuff in Spanish. We are looking forward to the next batch of records, including the eagerly awaited David Eckstein's "N****a Please" and the R.

[ Are Your Children Getting Hooked On Credit? ]

[ How To Develop Improve Spending Habits ]

[ Credit Risk Profile For Young People ]
By Paul S. Richard - Institute of Consumer
Financial Education's Executive Director
1) As soon as children can count,
introduce them to money. Take an active role because repetition
and observing others are the two methods they learn by.
2) Communicate with children, as they grow, about
your values concerning money and how to save it, make
it grow, and most importantly how to spend it wisely.
3) Helping children also learn the difference between
needs, wants and wishes. This will prepare them for making
good spending decisions in the future.
4) Setting goals is a fundamental concept to help
young people learn the value of money and also how to
save. People, young or old, rarely hit targets they don't
have. Nearly every toy or other item children ask their
parents to get for them can become the object of a goal
setting session. Benefits of saving to achieve the goal
is an important aspect and provides built-in motivation.
Goal setting for good grades, toys or savings, helps children
learn to become responsible for their own futures.
5) Indoctrinate your children to accumulation (or
savings) instead of spending( or consumption). Explain
and demonstrate the concept of earning interest income
on savings. Consider paying interest on money saved at
home. Have children help calculate the interest so they
can learn and see how fast money accumulates through
the magic power of compound interest. Later on,
they will also realize that the quickest way to a good
credit rating is a history of regular successful savings.
Some parents offer to match what children save on their
own. "It is a time tested way to get them started,"
says Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine. I read
of one couple who had their children pay one-half the
cost of all their playthings over the years. They handed
it back to them with interest at their children's college
graduation. It averaged over $2,000.
6) When giving children an allowance or income,
give the money in denominations that encourages saving.
For example if the amount is $5, give out five $1 bills
and encourage at least one be set aside in savings. (Just
saving $5 a-week at six percent interest compounded quarterly
will total about $266 in a-year, $1,503 in five years
and $3,527 in ten years.)
7) Introduce U. S. Savings Bonds to children. Take
them to the bank when you make the purchase. Bonds are
still a good value, cost one half the face value, earn
interest and in some instances, will be tax-free if. used
for a college education. Perhaps more importantly, when
given as a gift, they will not be immediately spent -
and this will reinforce savings and goal setting lessons.
8) Take the youngsters with you to a credit union
(or a bank) when you open their savings accounts. Beginning
the regular savings habit early is one of the keys to
savings success. Don't refuse them when they
want to withdraw from savings for a purchase or you'll
risk discouraging savings all together.
9) Keeping good records of money saved, invested
or spent is another primary skill young people must learn.
To make it easy, use 12 #10 size envelopes, one for each
month and a larger envelope for the year. Establish this
system for each child. Encourage children to keep receipts
from all of purchases and then make notes.
10) Going to the grocery store is usually one of
a child's first spending experiences. About a third of
our take-home pay is spent for grocery and household items.
Spending smarter at the grocery store (using coupons,
etc.) can save more than $1,800 a-year for a family of
four. To help young people understand this lesson, demonstrate
how to plan a meal, how to use planned leftovers. Before
actually going to the grocery, check to see what items
are on sale, what could yield a coupon savings, etc. Encourage
checking store ads and comparing prices weekly. Also,
the use of lists and coupons and also how to shop by the
by unit price.
11) Take children with you to other stores, explaining
how to plan purchases in advance and make unit price comparisons
and also checking for value, quality, reparability, warranty,
etc. Spending money can be fun and very productive when
spending is planned. Unplanned spending however, usually
results in 20-30 percent of our money being wasted because
we obtain poor value with many purchases.
12) Allow young people to make spending decisions,
both good and poor, and then encourage a discussion of
pros and cons before more spending takes place. Encourage
them to employ common sense when buying. That means research
before making major purchases, waiting for the right time
to buy, and employing the spending-by-choice technique
which is selecting at least three other things money could
be spent on, once it has been decided to make a purchase.
13) Show children how to evaluate ads on TV, radio
and in print. Will the product really perform and do what
the commercials say? Is it really a sale price? Are there
alternative products available that will do a better job,
perhaps for less cost? Just because something looks expensive,
doesn't mean it represents the best value. Remind them
that if something sounds too good to be true, it usually
14) Look into joining a credit union, if you are
not a member already. They usually have a good youth program
that encourages savings and reinforces what you teach
at home about money. Explain to young people about the
advantages of member-owned and operated credit unions
- i.e. higher savings interest paid, lower borrowing costs,
etc. - which is why over 57 million Americans belong to
15) Alert children to the dangers of borrowing
and paying interest. Charge interest on small loans you
make to them so they will learn quickly how expensive
it is to rent someone else's money. Credit is all about,
renting another's money for a specified period of time.
For instance, paying for a $499 TV over 18 months, $31.85
a- month at 18.8 percent interest means it cost about
16) If parents are using credit cards, at a restaurant
for example, take advantage of an opportunity and explain
to children how to verify the charges, how to calculate
the tip ( a tip should never be calculated on the sales
tax portion of the tab) and how to take safeguards against
credit card fraud. Explain also how and when you plan
to pay for this and other charges children have observed.
17) Be cautious about making credit cards available
to young people, even when they are entering college.
Credit cards have a message: "SPEND!"
Some students report using the cards for cash advances
and also to meet everyday needs instead of an emergency
(as originally planned). Many students in that group also
reported having to cut back on classes to fit in a part-time
job just to pay for their credit card purchases.
18) Using a calendar, establish a regular schedule
for a family discussion about finances. This is especially
helpful to younger children. the time when they count
their savings and receive interest on their savings. Discussion
topics should include the difference between cash, checks
and credit cards and also wise spending, how to avoid
the use of credit and the advantages of savings and investments
growth. With teenagers also discuss the effects on the
economy - of inflation versus deflation - on how to economize
at home, and alternatives to spending money. Some examples
are borrowing an item, bartering, making it yourself,
or a one-time rental or buy used, etc.
SUMMARY: Money gives people - both young and older
- decision-making opportunities. Everyday spending decisions
can have a far greater negative impact on your children's
financial future (and yours also) than any investment
decisions they (or you) may ever make. Educating, motivating
and empowering your children to become regular savers
and investors will enable them to keep more of the money
they earn and do more with the money they keep!

Dates are the fruit of the date palm. The tree hails from the desert oases of Northern Africa or the Persian Gulf and has a history so long experts can't pinpoint its exact origins. The earliest carvings from Egyptian and Mesopotamian civilizations show dates were already a well-established staple. In those regions, dates are still considered an essential of life and have about 800 distinct uses.
Desert Arabs have been known to maintain health for long periods on virtually nothing but dates and milk, and some authorities consider dates a nearly perfect food. Most of their value lies in their high sugar content, ranging between 50 percent for fresh dates and 70 percent for dried ones. But they also contain a fair amount of protein, fats, vitamins A and B, minerals such as iron and magnesium, and high levels of fiber and potassium.
Most of the dates we get in the United States are of the large Medjool variety, although others, notably the Bardhi, are also available. Most are sold pitted and packaged, chopped or whole. If buying in the bulk section, look for plump dates with smooth, shiny skin. Avoid those that are highly shriveled and those developing mold or sugar crystals on their skin.
Dates figure prominently into the Feast of Ramadan, the 30-day observance when Muslims fast between sunrise and sundown. Tradition holds that dates were the first food the prophet Muhammad ate when breaking his fast, but the wisdom of eating dates transcends the spiritual –dates help regulate blood sugar during long periods of fasting.

1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup heavy cream
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, cut into small pieces
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
